The fate of Faith

Faith, trust, believe…all old fashioned words that mean nothing in today’s world unless of course you participate in those five yearly races called elections. In which case these words just mean one thing – the vote bank.

But that’s not the meaning I was talking about. I was talking about the kind on which forever after relationships are based. The kind which wise people know is far more important than love for love is fickle while faith stays true. That’s its nature.

But then again I am talking of things past. Things that are obsolete and do not mean anything anymore. 

Why do I say so you ask?

I say this because around me I see the wreckage of human relationships; I see greed, lust and selfish interest guide people into higher and still higher levels of oblivion from the pain of those around them.

How is it possible for people to negate everything that’s been done for them, whether by parents, friends, and siblings or spouses for something which even in their heart they know is wrong? 

I see gregarious, warm totally loveable people turn miserable, cold and sad because someone has not bothered to appreciate the immense faith these people had reposed on them. It fills me with a huge amount of sadness and anger - such lovely people didnt deserve such fates. 

All I can and do is pray for strength for them, pray that they find it in themselves to get up, dust off and move on. For faith once broken will never be the same again and they need to first find themselves before they can hope to salvage anything from their past lives.
